Tokamak start-up with electron-cyclotron heating
Experiments are described in which the start-up voltage in a tokamak is reduced by about a factor of two by the use of a modest amount of electron cyclotron resonance heating power for pre-ionization. The solution of the zero-dimensional start-up equations indicates that the effect is due to the high initial density which increases the rate at which the conductivity increases in the neutral-dom...
متن کاملIon Cyclotron Range of Frequencies Mode Conversion Electron Heating in Deuterium-Hydrogen Plasmas in the Alcator C-Mod Tokamak
Localized direct electron heating by mode-converted ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) waves in D(H) tokamak plasmas has been clearly observed for the first time in Alcator C-Mod. Both onand off-axis (high field side) mode conversion electron heating (MCEH) have been observed. The MCEH profile was obtained from a break in slope analysis of electron temperature signals in the presence of ...
متن کاملBernstein rays in a Tokamak plasma in the electron - cyclotron heating conditions
TECHNOLOGICAL advances in the construction of high-frequency tubes (gyrotrons) (ALIKAEV et al., 1978; .TORY, 1978) have produced a sustained interest in the possibility of using microwave energy in the electron-cyciotron frequency range (ECF) o = ace, as a promising additional heating scheme for Tokamak plasmas. Nearly all proposed experiments, which will become operative in the next two years ...
متن کاملPfc/ja-83-13 Parametric Phenomena in Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating of Tokamak Plasmas
A theoretical study of parametric processes near the electron cyclotron resonance region in tokamak plasmas is presented. Parametric dispersion relations, including finite wave length of the driver pump, of principal and harmonic parametric excitations, are given. The problem of primary and secondary decays including their temporal and spatial growth rates is studied. In the nonlinear phase of ...
